England vs Argentina - Weds 15th July - 20.00 (BST)

[Libertine]

We'd have been battered against Spain either way.

 

Ah well. At least Euro 2028 is at home. Can't lose, right? 

[splinterdream]

All he needed to do was bring on fresh legs and keep the ball. We had quality on the bench. Absolute howler, not saying in hindsight, I called it when he brought the extra defenders on. At 1-1 he should have subbed some if his subs 

[JonnyZeroFox]

Pathetic decisions by the management… again like Southgate that’s what lost us the game 

[Muzzy_no7]

Tuchel a lot to answer for the last 30 mins.

 

Kane dreadful, truly dreadful in the quarters and semi.

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Didn't deserve to win. Manager has lost us that, you can't take Gordon off for Konsa with 40 odd left. No pace at the top of the pitch, no outlet with Kane playing at centre half. 

 

Will be pouring out a chilled red and getting chorizo down me on Sunday, hope Spain ****ing flatten these 

[Zear0]

Got what they deserved, still makes me feel sick though.

We dont win because we are fragile. We always get scared and show no fight when you need to keep doing what was working. Don't invite the pressure 

Exactly this. Any level of football the best teams go for the jugular not go into your shell

[Pliskin]

Thomas “Mikey Adams” Tuchel. 

[STUHILL]

Until we get out of this decades long mentality of trying to hold onto 1 goal leads no matter how long is left, we will never win anything. 

 

It is such a cowardly approach to play, and doesn't deserve to win any tournament. 

[em9999]

Argentina deserved to win 

 

That's about it really .. ridiclous and cowardly decision on subs and just to sit back and invite them onto us 

 

One of the best long shots in world football and no-one closes him down 

 

 

Jokers

Best team won, sadly. Really thought we would have too much for them. 

[trabuch]

Tuchel will get battered for that

[RowlattsFox]

Once again Kane is awful at the latter stages of a tournament. 

 

The reaction to the goal from Argentina was good from the goal and that caused Tuchel to panic. 

[PhillippaT]

BOOOOOO@Tuchel

[bovril]

Looks like Bellingham has learned some Spanish

[st albans fox]

The pundits won’t have the bottle to say it how it is 

they’ll say how brave we were 

[martyn]

Southgate would have been crucified for that.

 

Absolutely ridiculous to concede the initiative to that degree for 35 minutes whilst having no counter attacking threat.

 

If thats how its going to be, Tuchel should fall on his sword.

[StanSP]

Feel sorry for Jude. Deserved a world cup final. 

[moore_94]

Enzo Fernandez was getting closer and closer with his long range shots and they just gave him all the space and time he could want

 

Ultra defensive tactics and 6 defenders on the pitch screwed us from being able to go forward

 

Absolutely fvcked it

[ClaphamFox]

That was completely self-inflicted. We just stopped playing after Gordon scored, then Tuchel’s reaction to that was to become even more negative. Spineless, pathetic management from him. No better than Southgate.

Nope. Here come the excuses 

[CrispinLA in Texas]

I thought Tuchel was the master tactician 🙄

[filbertway]

Took me back to the Rodgers days. On the plus side, I was mentally prepared for the loss 5 mins after we scored and decided to defend like it was the 95th minute

 

Should be a fun final. Shithouses galore.

[Legend_in_blue]

Southgate v2 just lost us the game.

[Jattdogg]

Kane was useless,  too scared to take him off like theybwere too scared to give vardy a chance.

 

I love kane for england but he was a nobody this game.
